Teen Violence is not a new phenomenon and not something that is limited to this generation of kids. Still, Teen Violence remains a major problem in our country. The best prevention - is, of course, the parents - (It always falls on us - doesn't it.)

Lory Allison's book, Sydney's Vampire Diaries "weaves the warning signs of teen dating violence into a believable and infectious story familiar to many girls today even if they are not yet aware of the real vampires among them." Dixie Allen--Program Coordinator, Project [REV] Resources for Ending Violence, Texas Woman's University.

Lory says that the best weapon for parents is information. I have listed a few websites that provide some great insights. I have also included a link to where you can purchase one of Lory Allison's books.
